CAN’T TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS

 * 2004-03-15 - WALDORF-ASTORIA HOTEL, NEW YORK CITY, NY**

Bruce inducts Jackson Browne into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at a ceremony in New York City. In his speech, Bruce recalled first seeing Browne at the Bitter End in the early seventies after he played his own set at Max's Kansas City. He also noted that the audiences the two drew were a little different. "Jackson Browne was a bona fide rock'n'roll sex star", said Springsteen. "Now, being a little competitive, I also noticed that while the E Street Band and I were sweatin' our asses off for hours just to put some fannies in the seats, that obviously due to what must have been some strong homo-erotic undercurrent in our music, we were drawing rooms filled with men. Not that great lookin' men either. Meanwhile, Jackson is drawing more women than an Indigo Girls show!" Bruce did not perform at the ceremony, which featured performances by Browne, Prince and Bob Seger.


 * 2004-03-16 - BEACON THEATRE, NEW YORK CITY, NY**

Twenty-four hours after inducting him into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, Bruce joins Jackson Browne onstage for the final encore of his show to sing "Take It Easy". Bruce played electric guitar and added backing vocals to the song Browne co-wrote with Glenn Frey.

 * 2004-06-29 - THE ANTRIM RESIDENCE, RED BANK, NJ**

JAM MEDLEY / THE PROMISED LAND

A truly unique moment in Springsteen history. In December 2002 young Michael Antrim had submitted a painting of Springsteen as part of a Freehold Library Art Contest – his submission won the best-in-show award. Springsteen only belatedly found out about it (and that Michael had always wanted the item autographed). So Bruce went over to the family home alone to sign it. Once inside Bruce learned that Michael was a budding guitarist and that Michael had an acoustic and an electric guitar handy – so Bruce said “let’s play”. The two jammed in the living room and Bruce also gave a solo rendition of “The Promised Land”. All up Bruce spent about 90-minutes at the home.
